Ingredients
  

  • 8 slices sturdy bread sourdough, rye, etc.
  • 4 oz shredded cheese
  • ¼ cup mayo 1 tablespoon per sandwich

Instructions
 

  • Preheat a heavy skillet over medium.
  • I assemble my sandwiches with mayo on the outside, then shredded cheese in the middle.
  • Griddle for about 3 minutes on the first side and 2 minutes on the second.
  • Let rest a minute or two before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • You can layer whatever you like inside a grilled cheese - just make sure cheese is in between each layer so it all holds together.
  • Not a fan of mayo or all out? Use butter. Any sort of fat will work, I just know sometimes my butter is too hard to spread and mayo never is.
